Become a part of a life changing experience. "It takes a village to raise a child." Be a part of that child's village! Volunteer to become a mentor, refer a child to the mentoring program, or donate to the program.
The idea of a mentoring program originated by Vanessa and Darci. The idea was shared with Brenda, and the program vision became a reality! True Direction is a Non-profit 501(c)(3) program. The program board along with the Director are very excited to share such a life changing experience with the county, and hope to see it become very successful! :)
